Gyratory Compactor
Key Features
- Automatic mould insertion and retraction on side table which allows cooling time before extraction without loss of compaction time (especially important for rubberized asphalt)
- 150mm and 100mm internal Ø moulds can be tested without changing parts
- Cold mix (emulsion) materials can be compacted and the expelled fluid collected
- Ethernet connection for data acquisition and control system
- User friendly LabVIEWTM software displays results in real time
- Machine calibrated with traceable equipment
- Option for mould up to 300mm high
- Compaction of asphaltic paving material to a target mixture density or void content
- Assessment of mixture compactibility
- SHRP Superpave asphalt mixture design
- Preparation of cylindrical test specimens
